(1) Which has material and glazing applied or affixed to the front windshield, which material and glazing when so applied or affixed reduce light transmission through the windshield; or
(2) Which has material and glazing applied or affixed to the rear windshield or the side or door windows, which material and glazing when so applied or affixed reduce light transmission through the windshield or window to less than 32 percent, plus or minus 3 percent, or increase light reflectance to more than 20 percent.
(c) The provisions of subsection (b) of this Code section shall not apply to:
(1) Adjustable sun visors which are mounted forward of the side windows and are not attached to the glass;
(2) Signs, stickers, or other matter which is displayed in a seven-inch square in the lower corner of the windshield farthest removed from the driver or signs, stickers, or other matter which is displayed in a five-inch square in the lower corner of the windshield nearest the driver;

According to the definition, about the cars that are built for occasional off-road useage. Almost everyones car has some sort of part that is for off-road usage like bodykits and turbos and stuff like that so wouldnt all of our cars be considered multi-purpose vehichles? and some of the newer cars come from the factory w/ dark tint

no car comes from the factory with tint lower that 70%. and body kits and tubros don't meet the standard for "off road"
try something like AWD and you will have a case.
